There were quite a bunch of generic moments and death flags. Otherwise, it was an alright episode imo. The OST is amazing though. You need to put headphones to enjoy this 100%. Also, the ending reminded me of Independence Day, the movie.

It comes out on Crunchyroll in less than an hour, right? I have absolutely no idea what it's about because I didn't read or watch anything about it, but I'm excited none-the-less!

Well, it's completely original. But all you need to know coming in for this mecha show is that Gen Urobuchi wrote this, and that means it's going to be a psychological roller coaster as he is known for bringing out the darkness of a human heart better than anybody.

Urobuchi only worked on the first 3 chapters because he's too busy working on Kamen Rider Main.

Fresh off watching SAO II on Daisuki, now only the first two minutes of this show is up. Back to Daisuki for this, and hopefully I won't have to do this later on for Mahouka.

Anyway, Gen Urobuchi didn't take long to create chaos and havoc here. Earth and Mars are at war, and the princess wants nothing of it. The Vers Empire things otherwise, and so they are bombarding Earth to get the princess to submit. That was just a nice way to set the stage for a patented UroGen horror show to go on.

It was a pretty good first episode. Waiting to see if it takes the predictable story path. The animation was engaging at the least, and we'll see how interesting the story is going forward, but it looks promising.

That episode was fucking awesome. I love the conflict between Mars and Earth. And the Aldnoah mechs seem pretty sweet. I had a feeling that Asseylum was going to get fucked up, though, I don't think she died. Also Inaho seems pretty sweet, I like his carefree personality and Slaine seems cool. I hope he changes sides and fucks up those Mars bastards.

And poor New Orleans! First a hurricane and now Mars ship wrecking havoc. New Orleans just can't get a break

Also does the guy that hit Slaine the same VA that played as Kotomine from the Fate series? Sounds just like him.

It bothers me how you can watch it before it was fully uploaded to Crunchyroll. About an hour ago I tried watching and the episode ended 2 minutes in. I tried watching a few minutes later and it ended 6 minutes in. So I waited a half hour and it ended 19 minutes in, and then 21 minutes in. Upload it fully before you let people watch >_< I disagree with streaming or whatever they call it.
